I am currently Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. I received my Ph. D. in Philosophy from Boston University. My research focuses on the roles that subjectivity and conscience play in Hegel's practical philosophy. I work to situate Hegel's conception of subjectivity in the immediate context of the practical philosophy of Kant and the German Idealists. I am particularly interested in the significance of Hegel's thought for historical and contemporary political liberalism. Areas of Specialization: German Idealism (especially Kant and Hegel), Social and Political Philosophy Areas of Competence: Ethics, 19th and 20th Century Continental Philosophy, Ancient Greek Philosophy Education: Boston University, Philosophy, Ph. D. (2007) Carleton University, Humanities with a Concentration in Philosophy, B. Hum. (2002) |
